Global Warming, Fighting for Survival
I’m always looking for more information on Global Warming to share. It is such a big concept and so many people don’t think they can do anything about it. The thought that “our Government” needs to do something or “Someone” needs to DO SOMETHING is just so amazing to me. WE ALL HAVE A STAKE IN THIS! ! ! We all have to be involved in the ultimate result because we all are involved in the problem. We will be ultimately responsible for our environment and for appropriate Environmental Action.
As we begin to understand more about the affects we have on our planet, the scientists are beginning to be heard. They have been shouting this information to us for some time now but we were not prepared to listen. We also thought it was someone else’s responsibility. When we take a deep look inside ourselves, we will find the truth. We will not always like what we find but we will find the truth.
The TRUTH is that we are responsible for our own actions. The TRUTH is that we will be responsible for the outcome of our crisis situation. The TRUTH is that if we do NOTHING, we WILL be responsible for the Extinction of approximately 50% of the animal species on Earth today. The TRUTH is that if we do not get involved, many of our coastal areas (where much of our population centers are) will be under water as glaciers and the polar ice caps melt.
I found an interesting article in the Environmental News Network website titled: “The Earth May Be at Warmest Point in One Million Years.” Here is some interesting information from that article:
EL NINO AND GLOBAL WARMING
Overall, Earth is within 1.8 degrees F of its highest temperature levels in the past million years, Hansen and the others wrote. They noted a recent steep rise in average temperatures, with global surface temperatures increasing about 0.4 degrees F for each of the last three decades.
Scientists attribute this rise to human activities, notably the release into the atmosphere of greenhouse gases -- notably carbon dioxide -- which let in sunlight and trap its heat like the glass walls of a greenhouse.
Human-caused global warming influences El Ninos much as it sways tropical storms, the scientists wrote.
"The effect on frequency of either phenomenon is unclear, depending on many factors, but the intensity of the most powerful events is likely to increase as greenhouse gases increase," they wrote. "Slowing the growth rate of greenhouse gases should diminish the probability of both super El Ninos and the most intense tropical storms."
Weak El Nino conditions were present this month in the tropical Pacific, and could strengthen to a moderate event by winter, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which monitors the phenomenon.
In the United States, private forecaster WSI Corp. predicted warmer-than-normal weather over the Northeast and Midwest for the rest of this year, spelling sluggish energy demand for the start of the heating season.
The warm outlook, after the mildest winter on record last year, is due to uncertainty over the El Nino -- a warming of Pacific waters around the equator that can drive weather patterns around the globe, WSI Corp. said.
